BASIC ENGLISH GRAMMAR TOPICS
Do you have difficulty with any of the following grammar points? Would you like an explanation and a little practice?
These lessons are based on the excellent textbook, Essential Grammar in Use, by Raymond Murphy, published by Cambridge University Press.
Please choose one, two, or three of these topics and we can look at them together. Please let me know before the lesson which topics you have chosen, because I need a little time to prepare.
If there is some other grammar point not mentioned here that you would like me to explain and illustrate, please tell me what it is. I will research that topic and prepare a lesson for you.
If you would like a little homework after the lesson, please tell me. I will give you a few grammar exercises to do.
These lessons are aimed at students who are beginners—but not absolute beginners. Students will benefit from these lessons if they have already studied English for a year or two.
Children and adults are welcome.
